Are You Planning To Travel Out of Country This Year?
Canadian Passport Is Required For Traveling
I would like to know if I can use my old passport to cross the border while the renewal one is in process? I need to cross the border everyday for work.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Yes you can, in fact, use your old passport. There's an option on the form asking if you'd like to keep it. It's "stamped VOID" and "hole punched" but you can use it WITH the white receipt. You can't travel international but you can travel North America. My son and I did it yesterday.
DeleteWE just renewed ours two days ago and the old ones were invalidated on the spot. In fact, they have a machine that uses small spikes to punch right through the passport the phrase " VOID/NUL"
ReplyDeleteI don't know why they do that. My driver's license does not get made null and void when I apply for a new one
Further to my last comment, I would suggest that you query your local passport office to find out if there are temporary documents available or if there are exceptions to nullifying the passport if you still need one for work purposes.
ReplyDeleteHope that helps.
Another point is that they returned our nullified passports to us while we were at the passport office. They will need to see your current passport to renew your passport. If you do it by mail, you have to send in your current passport with the paperwork and that takes about 20 business days while doing it in person apparently gets you your new passport in 10 business days. I say 'apparently' because this is the first time we have renewed our passports and we are only 2 business days since doing the paperwork
ReplyDeleteis there a phone number to contact the passport place? not the 1-800 one as that one is just a bunch of recordings.
ReplyDeleteCall the 800 # and choose from one of the 6 (?) options. At that time you are able to press 0 and speak to a human. You may have to listen to the options twice.
DeleteI'm renewing my passport. Do I need to have someone sign my passport photo??? Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteYou do not need to have it notorized for a renewal. You can sign it yourself if you're over 18.

Five years ago, on my application it didn't request my middle name therefore didn't include it. Question is does passport have to be exact to birth certificate. Some say yes and some say no. I just renewed it again and planing a Europe trip end of summer and don't want to run in trouble with this not matching with birth certificates and other personal information not the same. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI heard that there is someone taking passport photos in the Windsor location. Can anyone confirm that?
